Does anyone know the pin out what controls the Diff lock light on engine loom in the master socket on bulkhead
Had to swap my engine loom got all the other connectors going all spot on other than the Diff lock light.
We suspect possibly one of...
Its the redundant EGR system all the electrical gubbings are still present though so something either failed or overheated in that. The EGR was blanked off but all the control systems are still present.
I am going to strip it out
Good morning
So after the old EGR wire coming off the third point of the alternator fully melted through my old engine loom I have had to order a new one, it still works fine the loom, but I am worried that long term it has compromised the...
I don’t know what proper burned is, but hopefully this photo helps its closer
The smaller wire on the lower terminal has shed its out pvc skin completely through the loom as I have pulled it through. Managed to get it up to the Thermostat elbow...
So still struggling to work out what that connector actually is.
The further connector down on the alternator which melted seems that it could be several things and I am a bit confused.
one post said it could be the battery warning charge...

We have done heat gasket last...
disagree, the bad memories come from when the engine starts and blows a hole in one of a failing the pipes. It does not take long to loose a whole lot of diesel and cover the whole engine and the driveway in fuel!
My defender had its roof off to repaint a few weeks back.
Since getting it back noticed the centre rear break light isn’t working. I have tested the fitting itself with a voltage tester with breaks engaged and the wires and bulb holder are both...
The leak off pipes
Thanks for this I wasn’t really sure it would be that issue as they were only replaced in August last year, but sure enough the 2nd one in from the back of the engine is absolutely soaked in Diesel.
Hello i have been away in the dales and since being here my 300 has been playing up a bit and struggling to start.
Differences from home
We are about 1200 foot up on a hill side its also been exceptionally wet constant rain and cold, i put in...
So my defender was involved in an accident and it involved a new radiator to be installed. The garage has done an excellent job. However I’ve noticed that the coolant that’s been put in it is red and I’ve heard that red can be very bad for an...
